4 NOMENCLATURE AND DEFINITiONS
4.1 Definitions of Terms
The nomenclature and definitions of pump components shall be in accordance with ANSI/tI! 1.1-1.2, except as noted below.
4.2 Additional Definitions
auxiliarit piping: includes all piping connected to the pump, seal chamber, packing box, or seal piping plan, excluding the main piping connected at the pump suction and discharge flanges. Auxiliary piping includes piping, tubing, and all attached components, such as valves, instrumentation, coolers, and seal reservoirs.
non prrssure-coutauung nonwetted parts: pump parts that do not contain or retain pressure and are not wetted by the pumped fluid.
non pressure-contanung wetted parts: pump parts that do not contain or retain pressure but are wetted by the pumped fluid (e.g., wear ring).
pressure-containing wetted parts: pump parts that contain pressure and are wetted by the pumped fluid (e.g.. casing, sealing cover).
pressure-retaining nonwetted parts: pump parts that retain pressure but are not wetted by the pumped fluid (e.g., adapter, fasteners).
sealing cover: refers to seal chamber, universal cover, or packing box.
supplier: manufacturer or manufacturer’s representative that supplies the equipment.
5 DESIGN AND CONSTRUC11ON FEATURES FOR METALLIC PUMPS
Section 6 contains the design and construction features that are unique for thermoplastic and thermoset polymer pumps.
5.1 Pressure and Temperature Limits
5.1.1 Pressure Limits. l’ressure limitations shall be stated by the pump manufacturer. See para. 5.8.3 for auxiliary piping.
5.1.1.1 The design pressure of the casing, sealing cover, and gland shall be at least as great as the pressure— temperature rating of ASME 816.5 Class 150 or ASME 816.42 Class 150 flanges for the material used.
5.1.1.2 The design pressure of jackets shall be at least 100 psig (689 kPa gage) at 34(F (171°C). Heating jackets may be required for jacket temperatures to 500°F (260°C) with a reduction in pressure correspond. ing to the reduction in yield strength of the jacket material.
5.1.1.3 Casing, sealing cover, gland, and jackets shall be designed to withstand a hydrostatic test at 1.5 times the maximum design pressure for the particular component and material of construction used (see para. 7.2.1.1).
5.1.2 Temperature Limits. Temperature limitations shall be stated by the pump manufacturer. Pumps should be available for temperatures up to 500°F (260°C). Jacketing and other modifications may be required to meet the operating temperature. See para. 5.8.3 for auxiliary piping.
5.2 FLanges
5.2.1 General. Suction and discharge nozzles shall be flanged. Flange drilling, facing, and minimum thickness shall conform to ASME 1316.5 Class 150 or ASME B16.42 Class 150 standards, except that marking requirements are not applicable and the maximum acceptable tolerance on parallelism of the back of the flange shall be 3 deg, Flanges shall be flat-faced at the full raised-face thickness (minimum) called for in the ASME standards for the material of construction. Raised-face flanges may be offered as an option, Bolt holes shall straddle the horizontal and vertical centerlines. Bolt holes may be tapped when adequate space for nuts is not available behind flanges, as noted in Table 1-1. Through bolt holes are preferred. When tapped holes are supplied, they shall be noted on the outline drawing.
5.2.2 Class 300 Option. As an option, Class 300 flanges in accordance with ASME B16.5 or ASME B16.42 may be offered with pressure ratings subject to the manufacturer’s casing pressure—temperature limitations. Class 300 flanges shall be flat-faced at full raised-face thickness (minimum), or raised-face flanges may be offered as an opt ion.
5.2.3 X and V Dimensions. All pumps, regardless of flange rating, shall conform to the X and Y dimensions shown in Table 1-1.
5.2.4 Heavy Hex Nuts. When. heavy hex nuts cannot be used, the location shall be noted on the outline drawing.ASME B73.1 pdf download.
